I do like the idea of being able to differentiate named units. And iβd like being able to see those names in places other than in the newspaper!

We have the option of naming a battleship/railgun. E.g. if we name a battleship HMS Hood and another HMS Marlborough we should be able to see which of them is Hood and which is Marlborough
It is helpful if we name the ships of a particular class and we want them to operate together. Eg We might want to make two battleships the Fuji and Yashima and keep both in a single stack
Here we should be able to know which ship is the Fuji and which is Yashima (especially if we have a third or fourth battleship and all of them are at random places at sea)

Well you can only see it in the newspaper if they destroyed an enemy stack. Maybe there should be an option to see the unit name beside the __ Battle group or __ Battleship flotilla thing
The only way the devs will do it if a bunch of infuential call of war players lobby them for this addition*
Theyβd do it also if enough people asked. This is a popular idea. I hope that with all the people asking they just bring it back, I see 0 reason not to.
Was it there earlier?
I believe so, yes.
I dont think so... but i may be wrong since i am relatively new to call of war
You couldnβt see all names I believe but like the the ship that you see in the newspaper today would be there, I think.
You only see the name of battleship which kills an enemy stack.. but what if 5 battleships are in there?
I donβt think that was ever an option. You will only see those names if it dies I think.
I think this used to be a feature, but the devs removed it because too many people were naming their ships inappropriately, and they could just be seen sailing along with those names.Nobodyx2 wrote:

I think just having it in the newspaper led to a dramatic decrease in inappropriate naming.
We already have leaders with garbage name and Nazi flags. How is this any different?
I'm not saying I agree with it, just saying that's the reason why it was removed.Carking the 6th wrote:

I'd love to see ship names implemented too.
They could just give a list of ships of the country you are playing and let you select from them (only in historic)
Maybe like the ship names from your doctrine or something? Idk Iβd prefer hard to see free names than east to see repetitive ones..
yeah i mean the following could be a scrap list:
Allied doctrine:
HMS Hood
HMS Prince of Wales
HMS Repulse
HMS Malaya
HMS Malaya
USS Colorado
USS Tennessee
USS Arizona
USS Texas
etc etc
Axis:
SMS Bayern
SMS Rheinland
SMS Westfalen
SMS Bismarck
SMS Ostfriesland
SMS Nassau
SMS Gneisau
SMS Scharnhorst
etc etc
Comintern:
Parizhskaya kommuna
Navarin
Imperatritsa Mariya
Sissoi Veliky
Peresvet
etc etc
Pan-Asian:
IJN Kongo
IJN Fuji
IJN Yashima
IJN Kirishima
IJN Yamato
IJN Tango
IJN Mikasa
IJN Asahi
IJN Sagami
IJN Suwo
IJN Hizen
IJN Satsuma
IJN Aki
P.S. I havent checked google for all this mess
Thereβs too few. The different countries would have the same ship names. I donβt think itβs worth it..
lets leave it to the public. in the newspaper it clearly says that Eg siberia ship "Sissoi Veliky" destroyed ____. it should be easy to find atleast 40-50 ships from each doctrine
Whatβs the point of naming ships then? Or named units in general? I donβt think itβs worth it.
it depends on the view of the person i guess anyway
just like people have mixed opinions sbout their Prime minister same thing goes for this
Politicians and game features are not the sameβ¦
